Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé destiné à la production d'une feuille de résine thermoplastique dont le gauchissement est contrôlé. Le procédé se caractérise en ce que lors de la formation d'une feuille de résine thermoplastique par extrusion, un gauchissement contrôlé mécaniquement est appliqué sur la feuille à l'emplacement où la température de la feuille extrudée est proche de la température de transition vitreuse (Tg) de la résine thermoplastique composant la feuille. Au cours de ce procédé, le gauchissement contrôlé mécaniquement est appliqué de préférence sur la feuille en faisant passer la feuille par un espace disposé entre une paire verticale de rouleaux contrôlant le gauchissement sur l'emplacement susmentionné et en sélectionnant la morphologie des rouleaux contrôlant le gauchissement et/ou en disposant les rouleaux contrôlant le gauchissement au-dessus ou en dessous de la hauteur nécessaire pour obtenir une feuille plane. Ce procédé permet de produire efficacement et facilement une feuille de résine thermoplastique dont le gauchissement est contrôlé.
